Description

Summary

- Hourly sea level data from many harbours, mainly along the Italian coasts, were processed from records given by other institutions or directly collected in a digital format from the original sources. Data validation methods were used; time series analysis and filtering techniques were used to compute the tidal components and residuals. Annual tide tables for Trieste are commonly prepared. The dataset is concerned with the following sites: IMPERIA 08-01-1966 01-12-1968 GENOVA 01-11-1955 30-09-1959 LIVORNO 08-09-1967 31-12-1968 CIVITAVECCHIA 01-01-1966 31-12-1968 NAPOLI 04-01-1966 31-12-1966 PALERMO 02-07-1968 31-12-1970 CAGLIARI 02-01-1966 31-12-1968 P.to EMPEDOCLE 05-01-1965 31-12-1968 CAPO PASSERO 04-01-1966 29-12-1968 OTRANTO 01-01-1966 30-10-1968 MANFREDONIA 01-01-1966 06-10-1968 ORTONA 20-07-1966 23-08-1968 VENEZIA 01-01-1966 31-12-1969 TRIESTE 01-01-1939 31-12-1991 ROVINIJ 01-01-1966 31-12-1968 SPLIT 01-01-1966 31-12-1968 DUBROVNIK 01-01-1966 31-12-1968
